The Long Quoc Accounting Office, a part of the esteemed Cuu Cam Group, became the epicenter of the corporate world when it announced a groundbreaking recruitment: Special Assistant to the Chairman. This singular, powerful position attracted thousands of applicants, turning the entrance to Cuu Cam into a ruthless battlefield.

In the midst of this cutthroat competition was Hứa Nhược Gia, an intelligent and ambitious woman. She had planned to arrive with her boyfriend of four years, Mai Hạ Văn, but he was a no-show, his phone unreachable. “Forget it, I won’t wait any longer,” Hứa Nhược Gia decided, refusing to let another person’s tardiness dictate her destiny.

As she was about to enter, she collided with a woman of striking yet arrogant elegance: Phó Minh Tuyết, the heiress of the Phó Thị Group. “Who is it? Are you blind? I’m rushing to an interview,” Phó Minh Tuyết snapped. Upon realizing they were both headed to Cuu Cam, the heiress’s contempt immediately morphed into open hostility.

Phó Minh Tuyết, who was relentlessly pursuing Sở Quân Nhĩ, the powerful Young Master of Cuu Cam, viewed this position as her rightful claim. She aggressively blocked Hứa Nhược Gia’s path, unleashing a barrage of insults: “It is precisely because this job is important that we won’t let an uneducated person like you step in. Cuu Cam Group doesn’t need trash like you.” Burning with indignation, Hứa Nhược Gia shot back: “If the leaders in Cuu Cam are all like you—biased and disregarding competence—then that is the real trash.”

The conflict escalated until a calm, authoritative voice cut through the tension: “Stop.” Sở Quân Nhĩ appeared, radiating an undeniable charisma. He made a clear declaration that halted all schemes: “From now on, anyone who dares to obstruct an interviewee will be immediately dismissed and never re-hired.”

Despite Phó Minh Tuyết’s furious pleas, Sở Quân Nhĩ upheld the principle of fairness, allowing Hứa Nhược Gia to proceed to the crucial written exam. Even though the staircase door was mysteriously locked (a scheme by Phó Minh Tuyết), Hứa Nhược Gia still managed to enter, leaving everyone—especially her rival—dumbfounded.

The written examination was a nerve-wracking affair, but when the results were posted, Hứa Nhược Gia’s name topped the list, securing the first spot for the final interview with the Chairman. Her success bred suspicion, even from Mai Hạ Văn.

Hạ Văn finally showed up after the exam, his face etched with a superficial remorse, but Hứa Nhược Gia’s eyes no longer held trust. “I waited for you for an hour, but you showed up early at the testing room. I think you owe me an explanation,” she challenged. Hạ Văn blamed his dead phone and accused her of being “tardy,” deepening Hứa Nhược Gia’s doubts: “Am I overthinking this? But everything is too coincidental.”

The dark truth about Mai Hạ Văn soon began to surface when Hạ Văn’s Mother sought out Hứa Nhược Gia, not to offer support, but to humiliate her: “Are you shameless, fighting with Tiểu Văn over a job? A woman should just stay home and take care of the family. That job rightfully belongs to my Tiểu Văn.” She baldly demanded Hứa Nhược Gia relinquish the opportunity.

Refusing to be scorned, Hứa Nhược Gia retorted fiercely: “If you say that job is his, let him come and get it himself. Why are you coming to me?” She declared her intention to end the relationship and her refusal to yield, sending Hạ Văn’s mother into a rage of vile curses.

Although Hạ Văn later appeared, putting on an act of apology and claiming the demand was only his mother’s idea, Hứa Nhược Gia saw through his calculation. She held her ground: “Even if I yielded, you wouldn’t accept it. You want to rely on your own ability to show me how good the man I chose is.”

The real battle commenced on the day of the final interview. As Hứa Nhược Gia prepared, a call came claiming her boyfriend had been in an accident. The timing of this blatant scam made her waver, but her composure held. She wisely double-checked the information and decided to stay, securing her victory in the final round.

Hứa Nhược Gia won the interview and officially became the Special Assistant to the Chairman. Immediately, Hạ Văn reappeared, heartbroken, accusing her of being cold-hearted for prioritizing the job over his “accident.” Hứa Nhược Gia finally realized the extent of his wickedness—that Hạ Văn, failing to secure the job himself, had conspired with his mother to sabotage her.

The nadir of his malice came when Hạ Văn spread a rumor that Hứa Nhược Gia had an infectious disease, forcing her to undergo a health check and creating obstacles for her at the company. When that failed, Hạ Văn played the role of the caring boyfriend again, bringing her favorite jasmine tea, but having spiked the water with a banned substance to frame her for drug use. Fortunately, Hứa Nhược Gia noticed his suspicious behavior and refused to drink. She had known for some time and was only waiting for solid evidence.

Moments later, the police arrived to arrest Hứa Nhược Gia on charges of drug involvement. In the chaos, Hạ Văn cruelly broke up with her over the phone, blaming her for everything. The shock aggravated the illness of Hứa Nhược Gia’s Father, who was already hospitalized.

In her darkest hour, Sở Quân Nhĩ emerged as her savior. He not only helped clear her name swiftly (her health check results were negative) but also investigated the person behind the plot. When Hạ Văn tried to delete evidence from his computer, Sở Quân Nhĩ provided the drugged cup to the police and sent someone to recover the deleted data, completely turning the tables.

Evidence was submitted. Hạ Văn was taken away for questioning. Hạ Văn’s Mother shamelessly insulted Hứa Nhược Gia, but Hứa courageously demanded that the woman publicly apologize.

However, Phó Minh Tuyết, the ultimate rival, refused to let go. She conspired with Hạ Văn to release AI-generated explicit photos to completely ruin Hứa Nhược Gia’s reputation and force her dismissal. This time, Sở Quân Nhĩ did more than just intervene; he publicly defended her, threatening to fire and sue anyone who spread the false information.

Confronted with Sở Quân Nhĩ’s unwavering protection, Hứa Nhược Gia was deeply moved. He finally confessed the secret he had kept for three years.

“Do you remember three years ago?” Sở Quân Nhĩ asked. Three years ago, after his father’s accident, Cuu Cam Group faced a major crisis. Pressed by creditors, Sở Quân Nhĩ was reduced to despair, drinking until he collapsed on the roadside. It was Hứa Nhược Gia, then a poor student, who took him to the hospital, spending her entire month’s allowance to save his life. Though he was too proud to accept help then, she never regretted it.

“You are my goddess of luck; since I met you, everything in my life has improved,” he said. His long-lost grandfather eventually returned, provided financial aid, and under his mother’s leadership, Cuu Cam rose back to the top. He confessed that he had been watching her from afar, silently protecting her, even arranging for the best doctor for her mother before she passed.

He was the one who unlocked the staircase door on the day of the interview. This heartfelt confession erased all doubt from Hứa Nhược Gia’s heart. Sở Quân Nhĩ officially proposed, not for a casual fling, but for a commitment: “a girlfriend I will marry properly, who will stay by my side until we are old and gray, the woman I choose for this lifetime.”

The declaration of love was immediately followed by the greatest corporate storm. Phó Minh Tuyết, humiliated by the public rejection, furiously demanded that her father’s company withdraw all cooperation from Cuu Cam. This was intended to cause a devastating 20% loss in revenue, creating the perfect opportunity for Lý Sùng Hổ (Cuu Cam’s interim Chairman) to overthrow Sở Quân Nhĩ and have him dismissed.

In a tense board meeting, Lý Sùng Hổ and the shareholders demanded Sở Quân Nhĩ’s immediate removal. Hứa Nhược Gia, now his assistant, stood with Sở Quân Nhĩ for a battle of survival.

Sở Quân Nhĩ challenged Lý Sùng Hổ to state the actual profit margin from Phó Thị. Hứa Nhược Gia, despite being a newcomer, presented the crucial evidence: the 20% figure was fabricated, and the true profit was only 2%.

Lý Sùng Hổ had merged the profits of 18 other companies under Phó Thị’s name to manipulate the books and embezzle funds. The evidence was corroborated by the testimony and backup data of a former chief accountant whom Lý Sùng Hổ had fired. The real and fake ledgers, along with a recording of his instructions, were played on the spot.

Faced with undeniable proof, Lý Sùng Hổ was forced to resign. Sở Quân Nhĩ, with a resounding victory, was officially elected the new Chairman of Cuu Cam Group. He closed the old chapter of grievances but vowed zero tolerance for any future deceit.

Yet, the villains had one last play. Hạ Văn, bailed out by Phó Minh Tuyết to serve as her pawn, kidnapped Hứa Nhược Gia’s Father to threaten her. Simultaneously, Phó Minh Tuyết arranged a car accident to assassinate Sở Quân Nhĩ. Fortunately, due to his vigilance, Sở Quân Nhĩ escaped, and the truck collided with Lý Sùng Hổ’s car (the former Chairman, now disgraced).

The final confrontation occurred at the location where Hứa Nhược Gia’s Father was held. Hứa Nhược Gia, facing Hạ Văn and Phó Minh Tuyết, stood fearlessly. The arrival of the police and the Elder Sister (Sở Quân Nhĩ’s powerful Aunt), who had helped rebuild Cuu Cam, sealed the fate of the traitors.

Sở Quân Nhĩ revealed that he had investigated everything—from Hạ Văn’s drugging plot and Phó Minh Tuyết’s attempted murder to the old case related to his father’s death. All roads led back to Lý Sùng Hổ and the Phó Thị family.

Mai Hạ Văn was arrested for drug trafficking/use, slander, and kidnapping. Phó Minh Tuyết faced an investigation for conspiracy to commit attempted murder, spreading false images, and corporate manipulation, watching her family’s empire crumble. Lý Sùng Hổ was also investigated for his crimes.

Sở Quân Nhĩ and Hứa Nhược Gia visited her father in the hospital, who was now safe. Sở Quân Nhĩ’s Mother (Dì) appeared, expressing her immense joy and urging them to marry soon so she could hold her grandchildren.

Sở Quân Nhĩ, now the undisputed Chairman of Cuu Cam, turned to Hứa Nhược Gia, repeating his proposal: “I wanted to use Cuu Cam to propose to you. Will you marry me?” He swore that his love was genuine, not a casual affair, but a promise to be “partners until our hair turns white, never leaving each other for three lifetimes.”

Hứa Nhược Gia, having endured countless trials and finally finding absolute sincerity, accepted. She believed in fate and the man who had silently protected her all along. The two departed together, ready to take on the responsibilities of leading the conglomerate.

“Do you know why I fought for control of Cuu Cam? I wanted to use Cuu Cam to propose to you.” That final statement, both romantic and powerful, closed the story of the woman who bravely overcame every wicked scheme to claim her rightful position and find the genuine love of her life, becoming the woman standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Chairman Sở Quân Nhĩ at the apex of the Cuu Cam Group.
